Call (Call)
 
Call (Call)
 
Call (Call)


I've always been collected, calm and chill


And you know
[Verse 1]


I never look for conflict for the thrill
What's my problem?


But if I'm feeling
Well, I want you to follow me down to the bottom


Someone stepping towards you, can't describe
Underneath the insane asylum


Just what I'm feeling
Keep your wits about you while you got 'em
 
'Cause your wits are first to go while you're problem-solvin'
 
And my problem?
 
We glorify those even more when they...
 
My opinion, our culture can treat a loss like it's a win
 
And right before we turn on them
 
We give 'em the highest of praise
 
And hang their banner from the ceiling
 
Communicating, further engraving
 
An earlier grave is an optional way, no




[Chorus]
[Chorus]


For you, I'd go
Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)


Step to a dude much bigger than me
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones (Neon gravestones try to call)


For you, I know
Call (For my bones)


I would get messed up, weigh 153
Call, call, call (Call, call, call)


For you
Call (Call)


I would get beat to smithereens
Call (Call)




[Verse 2]
[Verse 2]


You know
What's my problem?
 
Don't get it twisted
 
It's with the people we praise who may have assisted
 
I could use the streams and extra conversations
 
I could give up, and boost up my reputation
 
I could go out with a bang
 
They would know my name
 
They would host and post a celebration
 
My opinion will not be lenient


I'll be in the corner taking notes
My opinion, it's real convenient


And you know
Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action


I got your six while you're working votes
We don't get enough love?


But if I'm feeling
Well, they get a fraction


Someone stepping towards you, can't describe
They say, "How could he go if he's got everything?


Just what I'm feeling
I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king"




[Chorus]
[Chorus]


For you, I'd go
Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)


Step to a dude much bigger than me
Neon gravestones try to call for my bones (Neon gravestones try to call)


For you, I know
Call (For my bones)


I would get messed up, weigh 153
Call, call, call


For you


I would get beat to smithereens
[Bridge]
 
Promise me this (Call, call)
 
If I lose to myself
 
You won't mourn a day
 
And you'll move onto someone else
 
Promise me this
 
If I lose to myself
 
You won't mourn a day
 
And you'll move onto someone else
 
(Ooh, call, ooh, call)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Neon gravestones try to call

[Bridge]
[Bridge]


(Fight fight fight fight fight)
'Cause they won't get them
 
(I would get beat to)


You know I had to do one
No, they won't get them


You know I had to do one
They won't get them


You know I had to do one on the record (For you)
But they won't get them


You know I had to do one on the record for her like this


You know I had to do one on the record for her like this
[Verse 3]


You know I had to do one on the record for her like this
Don't get me wrong, the rise in awareness


You know I had to do one on the record for her
Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us


[Refrain]
But for sake of discussion, in spirit of fairness


If I'm feeling
Could we give this some room for a new point of view?


Someone stepping towards you, can't describe
And could it be true that some could be tempted


Just what I'm feeling
To use this mistake as a form of aggression?


A form of succession?


[Outro]
A form of a weapon?


For you, I'd go
Thinking "I'll teach them"


Write a slick song just to show you the world
Well, I'm refusing the lesson


For you, I know
It won't resonate in our minds


They think it's messed up to sell out for your girl
I'm not disrespecting what was left behind


For you, I'd go
Just pleading that it does not get glorified


Step to a dude much bigger than me
Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high


For you, I know
Find your grandparents or someone of age


I would get messed up, weigh 153
Pay some respects for the path that they paved


For you
To life, they were dedicated


I would get beat to smithereens
Now, that should be celebrated

Call (Call)

Call (Call)

Call (Call)


[Verse 1]

What's my problem?

Well, I want you to follow me down to the bottom

Underneath the insane asylum

Keep your wits about you while you got 'em

'Cause your wits are first to go while you're problem-solvin'

And my problem?

We glorify those even more when they...

My opinion, our culture can treat a loss like it's a win

And right before we turn on them

We give 'em the highest of praise

And hang their banner from the ceiling

Communicating, further engraving

An earlier grave is an optional way, no


[Chorus]

Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones (Neon gravestones try to call)

Call (For my bones)

Call, call, call (Call, call, call)

Call (Call)

Call (Call)


[Verse 2]

What's my problem?

Don't get it twisted

It's with the people we praise who may have assisted

I could use the streams and extra conversations

I could give up, and boost up my reputation

I could go out with a bang

They would know my name

They would host and post a celebration

My opinion will not be lenient

My opinion, it's real convenient

Our words are loud, but now I'm talking action

We don't get enough love?

Well, they get a fraction

They say, "How could he go if he's got everything?

I'll mourn for a kid, but won't cry for a king"


[Chorus]

Neon gravestones try to call (Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones (Neon gravestones try to call)

Call (For my bones)

Call, call, call


[Bridge]

Promise me this (Call, call)

If I lose to myself

You won't mourn a day

And you'll move onto someone else

Promise me this

If I lose to myself

You won't mourn a day

And you'll move onto someone else

(Ooh, call, ooh, call)


[Chorus]

Neon gravestones try to call

(Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

(Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call

(Neon gravestones try to call)

Neon gravestones try to call for my bones

(Neon gravestones try to call for my bones)


[Bridge]

'Cause they won't get them

No, they won't get them

They won't get them

But they won't get them


[Verse 3]

Don't get me wrong, the rise in awareness

Is beating a stigma that no longer scares us

But for sake of discussion, in spirit of fairness

Could we give this some room for a new point of view?

And could it be true that some could be tempted

To use this mistake as a form of aggression?

A form of succession?

A form of a weapon?

Thinking "I'll teach them"

Well, I'm refusing the lesson

It won't resonate in our minds

I'm not disrespecting what was left behind

Just pleading that it does not get glorified

Maybe we swap out what it is that we hold so high

Find your grandparents or someone of age

Pay some respects for the path that they paved

To life, they were dedicated

Now, that should be celebrated
